    Hiking

    The Wachtl quarry is located on the border between Tyrol and Bavaria, near Kiefersfelden (not Ruhpolding). For many decades, limestone and marl were mined here for the Kiefersfelden cement factory and transported down to the valley on the historic Wachtl Railway. Today, mining has largely ceased, and a small lake has formed in the former pits. Nature is slowly reclaiming the site—a silent testament to industrial history and the power of the landscape around Thiersee.
